German term or phrase: Gewoelle
Sie sah auch die Schafherde mit vielen kaum geborenen Laemmchen, weissen Flecken im grauen, wogende ***Gewoelle*** , das Tal herabziehen.
Stavo pensando di tradurlo con "onde": "macchie bianche su onde grigie". Idee migliori? Grazie

Explanation:
mi viene così spontaneo visto che "Gewoelle" ha da fare con la lana ma anche "onde" ci sta bene

Explanation:
Un paio di idee, considerando l'intera espressione (l'idea di onde è già contenuta in wogend).

fiume o nuvola di lana


Explanation:
Gewoelle = fiume o nuvola di lana e/o pecore

Ricordo uno straordinario Halloween passato in campagna, sola in macchina, in quel nord-est che Frank chiama improbabile, raggomitolata sul sedile posteriore, mentre le poche luci sfumavano nella nebbia. Fui svegliata da un tintinnare di campanelli, dal suono attutito di centinaia di zoccoli, il belare dolce e rassegnato di ***un fiume di pecore, una gigantesca nuvola di lana** che si separava costeggiando la macchina per ricompattarsi subito, alla musica di quel tintinnio fiabesco.
